  • Real Madrid – Cristiano Ronaldo Makes Jose Mourinho Look Good

    Real Madrid – Cristiano Ronaldo Makes Jose Mourinho Look Good

    A new design in his hair to flaunt in front of the cameras, but also some rare bravery and playing through pain, scoring through it. Cristiano Ronaldo was the big star, along with his big rival, of yet another clasico, being the one good thing about Real Madrid in the second half as Jose Mourinho tried to spin the result off as a good one.

  • FC Barcelona – Lionel Messi the Only one who can Score

    FC Barcelona – Lionel Messi the Only one who can Score

    Only a draw at home against their biggest rivals, and still, Barcelona should be pleased. Still 8 points ahead of Real Madrid, and still one Lionel Messi, there whenever he’s most needed, scoring two goals in a match they probably didn’t deserve to win, a rarity in a Clasico from recent years.

    Lionel Messi & Cristiano Ronaldo Rule Clasico Again (Barcelona vs Real Madrid)

    If the pregame was all about the Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo rivalry and importance, the match was exactly the same. Barcelona and Real Madrid featured other players who had quite an effect on the match, but the big two were the only players who scored, as the Clasico ended in a 2-2 draw, keeping the 8 point distance at the top of the La Liga table.

  • Arsenal FC – The Santi Cazorla Team

    Arsenal FC – The Santi Cazorla Team

    Beyond the fact that Theo Walcott and Olivier Giroud scored in this match, this was a perfect rebound for Arsenal and more than that, further proof of just how in control Santi Cazorla is, and just how important he is to the Gunners, proving it once again in the 3-1 win over West Ham.

  • Barcelona vs Real Madrid – El Clasico Predictions

    Super Sunday is about quite a few big clashes around Europe, but none bigger than the greatest club match in the world, as Barcelona, with an 8 point lead in the La Liga and a Lionel Messi in somewhat of a drought, face the chasing Real Madrid, with the recovering and non-stop scoring Cristiano Ronaldo.

  • Premier League – Match Week 7 Predictions

    Premier League – Match Week 7 Predictions

    The seventh round of matches in the 2012-2013 Premiership season kicks off as the tired champions host a team they struggle against, Sunderland; League leaders Chelsea have a relatively easy match at home against Norwich; Arsenal travel not to far in another London derby against West Ham while Manchester United travel to Newcastle.

  • Transfer Rumors 2012 – Manchester United Moving Chicharito to Real Madrid

    Manchester Untied have been following quite a few Real Madrid players over the last year, hoping that their situation with the Spanish champions allows them to swoop in and purchase them for a relatively bargain price. Now, the idea of using hardly-used Mexican striker Javier Hernandez in some sort of exchange deal is brewing at Old Trafford.

  • Manchester City – Joe Hart and Roberto Mancini Being Honest

    Right now, Manchester City have one point out of their first two matches in the Champions League group of death. The match they drew, against Dortmund, should have ended in a humiliating home defeat if it wasn’t for Joe Hart. The rare thing about the post-match interviews was having Roberto Mancini admit his team was completely outclassed.

  • Arsenal FC – Gervinho and Lukas Podolski Keep Scoring

    Somehow, Arsenal are making up for the departure of their best player and scorer. Gervinho, of all people, is leading the gunners with 5 goals this season, although some of them, like his fluke striker against Olympiakos, haven’t been top class. Lukas Podolski is right behind him, making sure people don’t forget this team does have scoring option without actually playing a productive striker.

  • Real Madrid – Cristiano Ronaldo the Hat Trick King

    Just in time, Cristiano Ronaldo is hitting perfect goal scoring form. He and Real Madrid are out of their little funk, and after rather easily dealing with Ajax in the Champions League, they can move on to the more important stuff – stopping Barcelona in the league, paying a visit to the Nou Camp for the first league Clasico of the season.
